[dross]

Where's the best deal these days?

Just ordered a couple of these myself. I've read some great reviews about them, but no first hand experience until mine come in. For the price they seem good though.

Cheapest?

Nail, hammer and some string... good luck! On a serious note?

PSA has a complete BCG for $90 in stock... which seems like a good deal. I'm pretty sure (without looking) that this is the same bolt in my PSA and I have not had any problems what-so ever

I've seen a lot of complaints lately about these guys.
Paid orders not being fulfilled.
Emails not answered, phones not answered...months of wait times for any orders.

Note:
The customer service number is not always answered during the day, however it is answered 7 days a week and text messages are always answered eventually.

I guess I'll wait and see for mine what happens. I picked it over the palmetto BCG because of the steel choice. The 9310 is supposed to be a better material for the bolt than the 8620

Hope you don't have to wait too long.

Dsgarms had spikes bcg for $103 or $113 not sure which. Midway has ar stoner for $100. If you go with a psa i would get their premium bcg. Check aimsurplus to. I think i just seen they have their brand of bcg for around $100 and its 9310

Dang. I wish I would have seen that earlier. I guess fingers crossed for now. I hope I don't get burned on this.

Correct, but a lot of quality bolts are made from Carpenter 158. I would steer away from any bolts made from 8620. Stick to bolts made from C158 and 9310. Of course all carriers are made from 8620

why mess around w/ saving a few bucks here and there. I just picked up a spikes bcg for $112 shipped from Rogtac.com last week. <$130 shipped from dsgarms.com not long before that. Just wait and the deals come.

Great product made in the usa (and stamped that way) and it comes in a nice plastic sealed tube for storage

 

[rcp2]

tube comes in handy to put the crappy bcg that came w/ your ar-15 that isn't HPT/MPI tested in

 

[rcp2]

palmetto has a good ar-15 days of christmas deal on a hpt/mpi bcg w/ their logo laser etched on it right now.

 

[vwoodrum11]

Check out Aim surplus as they have one for $79.95 shipped. Made out of 9310. Great deal.

 

[rcp2]

Watch out for stuff that says MPI...that doesn't really mean anything unless it has been HP tested. You don't have to spend a fortune on a BCM BCG to get a good one. Shoot, even my Del-ton 316 Echo came with a HPT/MPI BCG.

IF you are looking for a place to skimp, let the Barrel and BCG be the last to skimp on.
